RAJAR listener data for Q1 2013 is coming in to us from jazz broadcasters this morning.

- The production company behind Jamie Cullum's BBC Radio2 show have an unambiguously positive story to tell:

"The show has 920,000 listeners which is a record reach and share for the slot.
This was an increase of 220,000 on the previous quarter and up 90,000 on the year."

- Slightly more nuanced but none the less a very strong story from JazzFM"Q1 2013 reach is 604,000, down from 608,000 and a peak of 624,000 - not significant mathematically.
The big story is total weekly listening now up to 3.3 million hours an all time high, up 36% year-on- year and 10% quarter-on-quarter- means people are listening longer."

JazzFM also disclose that London is 42% of the total reach and 46% of the total hours listened.
